Northern Israel anger over Lebanon ceasefire

A new ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon has not brought relief to northern Israeli border communities, instead generating anger and distrust. Residents are questioning whether the deal is a strategic pause or another agreement signed far away while they absorb the consequences. The deeper concern is whether the move is part of a wider U.S. strategy focused on Iran, the Strait of Hormuz, and the nuclear file, or if the north is once again being treated as expendable terrain in a larger negotiation.
